The colored Vote at Atlanta.

The testimony of Atlanta Prohibitionists
is that the colored people defeated prohibi-
ton in that city. A few Of them were on
the side of prohibition, and seemed to be
earnest in behalf Of that cause, but the vast
majority of them were AGAINST it. There
were between 5000 and 1000 colored voters
registered, and it Is estimated that not more
than 500 of that number voted for prohibi-
ton. AS prohibition was defeated by about
1 100 votes it is evident that the colored
people are largely responsible for the rein
PRODUCTION of barrooms into Atlanta If one
half of the colored voters had supported
prohibition victory would have been with
the Prohibitionists.
IL is worthy of notice that in both Texas
and Tennessee, two States in which an
attempt was made within the last three or
four months to prohibit the sale Of intoxica-
ting liquors by constitutional amendment,
the colored people allied themselves with the
advocates of whisky Why is it that the
colored people in this temperance matter
are found acting against their own interests!
Is it because they do not know any better,
or is it because they cannot resist the
iiiluclCcS WHICH arc DIOuBuJ W DtLi upon
them in behalf of whisky! It can
hardly be that there is fairly intelligent
colored voter in this or any other State
WHO does not know that whisky does more
than anything else to prevent the colored
people from rising above their present
moral and material condition. As long as
they continue to spend their earnings for
whisky they will remain poor, and will con-
tribute to the prisons a very large per
centage of the inmates of those institutions.
The colored ministers could not do wiser
thing than TO use their influence against
whisky. They should make prohibition the
text of many of their sermons.
The fact that the colored vote was almost
wholly against prohibition in Atlanta shows
that the white people Of that city
are largely in favor of it. An analy-
sis of the total vote would doubtless
prove that those who represent at least two
thirds of the citys wealth and intelligence
believe that the city would be much more
prosperous without dram shops than with
them. What folly it is then to assert that
during the last two years prohibition has
been hindrance to Atlanta!

Jacob sharp's Improved Prospects.

Jacob Sharp's Improved Prospects.
Jacob Sharp of New York city, is not to
go to the penitentiary yet awhile. The
probabilities are that he will never 90 there
as a convict. The Court of Appeals has
declared that there were fatal mistakes
committed during his trial, and the verdict
has been set aside. The thousands of dol
lars which were spent to secure his convic-
ton were virtually wasted.
The court says that he is to have a new
trial, but is it probable that he will be again
convicted? Will the District Attorneys
Office be as earnest, enthusiastic and untir-
ing in its efforts to convict him as it was in
the first trial9 The prosecuting officers will
be inclined to think that it is useless to
waste time IN trying to send to the peniten-
tiary a man who has a million of dollars to
defend himself with.
The court does not say that the great
briber of the Doodle Aldermen is not guilty
Of the charges brought against him. 1t
simply says that certain evidence should
not have been admitted The Supreme
Court said that the admission of
this evidence was proper. A higher
court holds that both of the lower courts
were in error. OF course, the courts must be
upheld and respect for them maintained
but when differences between judges operate
to defeat justice, the public mind is not al
ways wholly free from feeling that the
courts are not as perfect as they should be-
Sharp's lawyers, who were rather severely
criticised for making what was regarded
during the trial as rather lame defense for
their client, will now receive the apprecia-
ton to which they are doubtless entitled.
Their case was bad one, and they knew
that they had very little chance to get a
verdict in their favor. They expected to do
their fine work in the higher courts, and the
result shows that they did it exceedingly
we'll. Their client will soon be out on bail,
and the chances are that he viii never again
darken the doors of jail.
